You can’t deny that pretty cobbled streets, sumptuous sea views and traditional chapels are the height of romance, and what’s more romantic than a Mamma Mia-style wedding in a Greek villa with a chapel?
We’ve put together our absolute favourite Greek villas with chapels so you can celebrate the ultimate wedding in Greece and enjoy a villa holiday at the same time. It’s basically a wedding and honeymoon in one with the perfect pictures to prove it.
Check out our wedding collection for inspiration for your nuptials.
1. Exi Estate, Elounda
Sleeps: 12-16
When we say Exi Estate is a slice of paradise, we’re not lying. The stunning interiors will have your guests thinking it’s their special day too while the tennis court, private pool and direct sea access make it the perfect place for a lavish group celebration. Host your ceremony in this villa wit a unique Greek Orthodox chapel, enjoy a sing-song on the Steinway grand piano for those essential Mamma Mia vibes and finish the night watching the spectacular moon-rises in the early hours.
2. Chapel View, Corfu
Sleeps: 2 (plus Boukari Bay and Villa Alexis can be booked in combination with Chapel View)
If you’re looking for a bit of privacy whilst also having your friends and family nearby, Chapel View makes a magical retreat for two while keeping your guests occupied with the pools and tennis court at the two larger villas on-site. Tucked away in an ancient olive grove, this fairytale-style studio exudes romance in the stone walls, wood-panelled ceilings and a central king-size bed. And the tiny, pink 16th-century Orthodox chapel makes an intimate (and picture-perfect) setting for the ceremony. You can even head down to the pebble beach for a post-ceremony dip!
3. Boukari Bay, Corfu
Sleeps: 16
Situated right at the water’s edge, the photos of Boukari Bay speak for themselves. Set in the same ancient olive grove as Chapel View, you’ll be able to access the pretty, pink chapel for your romantic ceremony before returning to the villa for a sunset dinner on the dining terrace overlooking the mountains. Need we say more?
4. Treasure Island, Athens Riviera
Sleeps: 20
For those looking to really blow their guests’ socks off, how does your own private island sound?! Treasure Island, spread over 900 acres and offering fresh produce and your own private chef, is opulence at its finest. The pretty little chapel is like something straight out of a film, so you can expect the perfect wedding photographs. And with panoramic views and an outdoor dining table seating up to 20 people, the celebrations can continue all throughout the trip.
5. Villa Mikis, Rhodes
Sleeps: 8
For a slightly smaller affair, Villa Mikis makes the ideal setting for a more casual wedding. With a cute chapel in the garden, you can wed in the light of the insanely beautiful sunrises over Afandou beach and celebrate with a slap-up barbeque brunch. There’s even a wellness area equipped with its own sauna and hot tub so you can zen out after the most important day of your life.
6. Villa Hislop, Elounda
Sleeps: 20
Above the sea in Plaka, with Spinalonga Island held in full view across the water, Villa Hislop makes a quietly spectacular setting for a Cretan wedding. Contemporary, spacious and built for gathering, this ten-bedroom villa brings together panoramic sea views, generous terraces, a private infinity pool and direct beach access, creating the kind of place where the celebration can unfold from ceremony to sunset dinner without ever needing to leave.
7. Villa Vikelas, Rhodes
Sleeps: 8
A sleek and contemporary option, Villa Vikelas oozes modern luxury with a very affordable price tag. From the large, private garden and inviting pool to the stylish living area and terraces perfect for star gazing, this villa is the place for only the coolest of couples. Wed in total privacy at the chapel in the garden before heading out for a day of exciting adventures in Rhodes Old Town, only a 10-minute drive from the villa.
8. Kyros Estate, Mykonos
Sleeps: 32
We’ve saved the biggest ’til last. Boasting one of the largest villas on the island and hosting up to 32 guests, Kyros Estate is the one for a wedding party to remember. With stunning bedrooms, immaculate ensuites and breathtaking sea views, your guests will be treated to utter luxury while relaxing in the villa. Within the landscaped grounds you will find the picturesque chapel so you can have your ceremony with everyone around you before heading out onto the Mykonos party scene! Walk over to the nearby beaches to take some romantic wedding snaps before celebrating in style at the Paradise Beach Club, famed for its amazing parties! Cheers to that!
